There's no need for dwarf support when perf recording with callchain.

Ok, due to your Ack I went on to read the code and indeed, with this
changeset description:

"There is no need to check for DWARF unwinding support when using the
'dwarf' callchain record method, as this will only ask the kernel to
collect stack dumps for later DWARF CFI processing, which can be done
in another machine, where the support for DWARF unwinding need to be
present."

Thanks,
